Attracted By My Ex-wife Chapter 487 The Conflict Between Them

Cherry's problems had nothing to do with Anne, so she figured it was better not to get involved in that
situation.

Actually, what she couldn't stop thinking about was Children's Day.

Another day had passed and the most anticipated day finally arrived. Anne wasted no time and got up
as early as she could.

Needless to say, Simon and Sally didn't want to get up at first. But, when their mom asked them if they
fancied accompanying Eddy to school, the two kids immediately turned over, eyes wide open. They
quickly got out of bed and put on their clothes with obvious excitement.

Anne shook her head slightly as she gave her children a loving look. It seemed that the two kids were a
little too eager about going to new places.

Who could imagine that the two kids would also go to kindergarten a year from now.

Funnily enough, they would probably lose their interest in that place just like their older brother.

Coincidentally, Eddy had already packed up his stuff and taken a seat at the table, like the obedient
boy he was. He had woken up so early that he had to wait for his mother and siblings.

Finally, Anne appeared at the kitchen, wearing a smile on her face as she was holding the hands of the
two toddlers. Then, the three of them walked over to the table and sat together simultaneously. "You
must eat quickly, my darlings. We have to pick up a little girl as soon as we're done!"

When Eddy heard the surprising news, he paused and lowered his head in defeat.

Ella was a troublesome little girl.



The smaller children, on the other hand, wolfed down their food due to the excitement of meeting
someone new. After Anne looked at the time, she took the car key and brought the children to the
vehicle.

"Mom, are we going to pick up a girl?" Sally had taken a seat beside her mom, now she was looking at
her with her big and beautiful eyes.

Anne nodded back at her with a smile. "Yes. You'll see her soon."

Sally nodded eagerly, but was unable to keep still after her mom's confirmation. Then, she glanced at
her two brothers and caught Eddy looking out the window with a trace of impatience in his eyes.

Naturally, Sally wanted to say something, but instead she bit her fingernail in confusion. There was
evident doubt in her big eyes. 'Wasn't that girl my brother's classmate? Why does he look unhappy?'

Meanwhile, Anne was growing desperate. As a matter of fact, it was rush hour and the traffic jam was
insufferable, so it took the family a lot of time to get to Ella's home.

When they finally arrived, they spotted the little girl waiting at the door. She waved her hand happily as
soon as she caught a glimpse of Anne.

At the same time, Anne stopped the car and greeted her with a smile. Ella approached her immediately
and got in. In the end, she sat down next to Eddy.

The latter frowned and made room for his classmate.

"Thank you, Auntie." Ella expressed her gratitude toward the lady with the sweetest smile.

"Eddy and you are classmates. You don't need to be so polite, darling." Anne shook her head gently
while driving.



Ella felt flattered by the pet name. Then, she took a quick look at Eddy. As she managed to catch him
bowing his head, she immediately bit her lips.

Even though, she was still driving, Anne could see the children from the rearview mirror. "Ella, where
did your father go?" she couldn't help asking.

The little girl thought carefully about her answer. And with a dull voice, she replied, "Dad often goes
away on business trips. Sometimes I can't even see him for a long time, so I just call him to at least
hear his voice."

Anne immediately understood the situation. The girl's father often had business stuff to attend to, so he
would also travel a lot. However, his journey was so hectic that she couldn't really find where he was
most of the time.

Ella's mother passed away after giving birth, so the only person in her life was her father. Nevertheless,
his absence could be justified, for he wanted to give his daughter a better life.

After all, Ella was just a poor child.

After listening to her story, Anne couldn't help but notice the sad look on the child's face. Her pouty
expression made Anne's heart soften.

"Ella, whenever you find yourself lonely during your dad's business trips, you can always come to my
place."

Eddy immediately raised his head in astonishment. Ella, on the other side, felt equally shocked by
Anne's request. "Thank you, Auntie," she said eagerly.

The lady smiled and shyly accepted her gratitude.



Some time passed until they finally arrived at the kindergarten. They found that the parking lot was
filled with luxury cars, so Anne's car could easily go under the radar.

As a matter of fact, she thought the car was just another way of transportation. While for many people,
it represented who they were, it was a symbol of status.

In the end, a car was just a another lifeless thing. Why was it so important?

Even since that one time they showed up at the school, everyone knew that Eddy was Anne and
Kevin's son. So, the parents who had missed out on the surprising news were present this time around.

Funnily enough, the main reason why the children's parents decided to come to the kindergarten was
not to celebrate Children's Day. Actually, they just wanted to get closer to Anne and Kevin.

After the LF Company was founded, the former had the opportunity to sign many cooperation
contracts, which none had to do with Kevin at all.

Perhaps, this came to be due to the powerful character of the company. However, there were still
plenty of people who wanted to please Anne.

What was more, Kevin was always avoiding the public, whereas Anne was much easier to approach.
Everyone knew that the man loved his wife very much, so the main goal was to flatter the lady and
attend to her needs rather than going straight to the powerful husband.

As soon as they spotted Anne on her way to the kindergarten, some of the parents were visibly
surprised when they noticed that Ella was walking right behind her.

It seemed that Colin, the upstart businessman in A City, was not as inexperienced as everyone
thought.



While they were doing everything in their power to get closer to Anne, Colin's daughter had already
touched her heart!

And, before she knew it, Anne found herself surrounded by a multitude of people. Some of their faces
were familiar to her, while others she had never seen.

"Auntie, your creations are so beautiful. I've always wanted to meet you in person, but I never had the
chance! What a crazy coincidence that your child and mine study at the same kindergarten, don't you
think? After the celebration, would you like to have dinner with us?"

"Auntie, Eddy is such a smart little boy. He is the genius of this kindergarten. What were your teaching
methods? Please, share them with us!"

Anne had no choice but to smile and answer their questions.

Nevertheless, she wasn't a fool. She knew exactly what they were trying to do. Eddy was a student
here though, so she couldn't act too proud and ignore them.

In the middle of what seemed to be an interrogation, everyone failed to realize that the four kids were
left behind.

Among the children, Eddy was the eldest and, naturally, the most intelligent. He could see right through
those people.

"Eddy, do they all know Mom?" Sally pulled his brother's clothes while looking at him with evident
confusion.

Eddy pursed his lips and frowned. He chose not to answer his sister's question.

Ella, on the other hand, felt bored out of her mind. However, she noticed Eddy's current state. She
approached him with caution and consoled him with a quiet voice, "It's not easy to be a child of the Fu



Family."

After he listened to her words, Eddy looked up at Ella in surprise.

Everyone thought that being born into the Fu Family meant infinite happiness and wealth.
Unfortunately, as the real successor, he knew it wasn't the truth.

Since he was bound to inherit the family business in the future, Eddy had to be smarter, learn faster
and to outshine the other children. To make matters worse, he needed to hide his true self from
everyone.

This was certainly not an easy task, especially as a young boy.

What was more, Eddy never expected to hear this from Ella one day.

"I see." Ella hesitated for a while, but decided it was better to speak up. "I've always liked you and tried
to be your friend multiple times, but you've always given me the cold shoulder. People are always
talking about me behind my back and, when I ask them why, they just laugh to themselves."

Ella was noticeably sad at this point, but she looked at Eddy with grievance and resumed her speech.
"My Dad just came to A City and hasn't gained a firm foothold here yet. That's why you and those kids
think I'm flattering your family, right? Because I want you to help us?"

Eddy frowned at her insinuation, but chose not to answer. For the first time, he looked at the girl
carefully.

She was wearing a white bubble skirt. Her fair skin highlighted her delicate features. He saw her gently
biting her lips, with a bit of grievance in her dark eyes. What a pitiful girl.



Now that he thought about it, Eddy agreed with what Anne had said. This girl was going to be incredibly
beautiful when she grew up.

"Answer me. Is it not true?" Unfortunately, the boy remained silent. Ella couldn't help but look at Eddy
with tears in her eyes.

The latter furrowed his eyebrows, deep in thought. Since Ella was a transferred student, it was the
teacher who arranged for her to be Eddy's deskmate.

Although this was just kindergarten, the parents basically forced their kids to please him and be friends
with him, so they could get closer to the family.

Much to their chagrin, Eddy's indifference, arrogance and contempt made it hard for those kids to be
friendly toward him. Therefore, they couldn't bear it and gradually distanced themselves from him.

In fact, he currently didn't have any friends here.

Not because he was annoying, but he couldn't let his guard down and be used as a tool for others to
get closer to his parents.

This explained his behavior toward Ella. Since she stuck to him and insisted to be his friend, Eddy kept
alert and used the same tactics on her, thus his indifference.

However, Ella proved to be really different from the other kids. Not because he had finally seen the true
sincerity in her, but because he realized she had really been persistent.

She tolerated his indifference and even his yelling, but she would still play with him.

Sometimes Eddy couldn't help but ask her why she put herself through this. After all, such a beautiful
girl could easily win anyone's heart with a smile.



Why did she stick to him?

When Anne and Kevin told him that Collin was the new upstart businessman in A City, Eddy held back
all his questions. He firmly believed that it was her father who ordered Ella to get close to him and his
parents.

So, how was he supposed to answer her question now?

The eloquent child was now at a complete loss of words.

"I was always nice to you and wanted to be your friend, but you just yelled at me. It turns out that you
just thought I was using you to get close to your parents!" Ella felt deeply hurt by him. Tears streamed
down her face, but she continued to talk. "Eddy, let me tell you that I didn't approach you on purpose,
nor did I do the same to your parents. Besides, my father doesn't need me to do that. He is a very
capable man!"

After she finally spoke her mind, Ella turned around and ran away angrily.

Eddy gritted his teeth and searched for Anne, who was still surrounded by the crowd. Since he had no
other choice, he immediately turned to his younger brother. "Simon, you must take good care of Sally,
okay? Don't run around, stay here."

Without further ado, Eddy chased after Ella.

Simon turned to Sally, whose eyes were also filled with confusion. The two kids were clever, but not as
clever as their older brother. They were still too young to understand many things.

However, they did find it strange that Ella had run away so angrily.

After answering every question and refusing all the invitations, Anne finally was set free. However,
when she only spotted Sally and Simon standing alone, she noticed that the two other children were



missing.

It seemed odd, but Eddy had been in this kindergarten for some time, so Anne wasn't worried about
losing him. Still, she asked, "Where are Ella and your brother? Where have they gone?"

Simon and Sally exchanged nervous looks. Then, they told their mom what had happened. Needless to
say, Anne felt just as confused as them.
